icon missing for amarok
« on: May 19, 2010, 12:15:50 AM »
Hi,

I recently installed amarok and the icon appears to be missing. All I get is the gear symbol. I'm using LXDE on this computer. I'd like to figure out how to relink the icon but can't seem to find where LXDE stores this setting. Any advice?

Thanks!

/usr/share/icons/hicolor/*/apps/amarok.png
where * can = 16x16, 32x32, 48x48, 64x64, 128x128

#you need to be root to proceed so
#if in your menu you have an option like run file-manager as root by all means click that otherwise in terminal:
gksu pcmanfm "/usr/share/applications/"


find > amarok.desktop
now edit the file  > gedit amarok.desktop
#if you do not have gedit use what ever text editor you have available
#just make sure you launch the editor from within pcmanfm so to attain root privileges.

#change the icon reference to reflect one that exists on your system
Icon=/usr/share/icons/hicolor/32x32/apps/amarok.png

#save and close.
#cheers.
